Minti is so different

Comment Published at 13:5013:506 comments6 comments28 Visits28 VisitsReport

Just to let you know, in the last few days I have recieved a lot of emails regarding an article I wrote ages ago about my sons' circumcision and the reasons why he had to have it done.I have found the response on the whole-after nearly 1000 viewings to be positive.But for some unknown reason some minti members have really had it in for me talking rubbish about matters which were personal and which I was willing to share with minti members.

At one time I loved to come on here and help people in Q&A and write the odd article but slowly but surely things began to change on here and obviously not for the better.

I met some lovely people on here which I have now found on another site which I use more regularly but i do admit I did enjoy this more.I think minti members should consider themselves really lucky that there are people out there from all over the world willing to share in their lives and experiences.

There are enough narrow minded people you meet in your lifetime without having to be insulted and belittled by on here.

I am quite upset and disappointed , but thankyou for members that have stuck up for me.

And by the way, I have replied to Joelface after he/she gave me grief and I have swore so will prob get reported.Wowee....

Re: Minti is so different

Hi Lisa

You certainly haven't been belittled, in fact you have come out of this looking pretty good in my opinion, however I  can understand why you feel insulted. Personally I would ignore the stupid comments, I wasn't even going to get involved because you know me, I much prefer to keep my head in the sand when "trouble" is about LOL

But I have just left my two penny's worth thoughts, for what they are worth

Just don't let small minded people bring you down, its never worth it!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Minti is so different

i know exactly how you feel hun. Last year I wrote about me getting a hysterectomy and did an article about it cause minti didnt have one at all. I had a tun of ppl just joining minti to slag me off and tell me it wasnt the right thing to do. I almost left minti because of it.

Minti is still a wonderful place it is just sad that random ppl feel that they can put ppl down for something they did or are planing on doing with either themself or their child when they have NO idea what they are talking about as they are not a parent of a child in this situation.

Re: Minti is so different

What bugs me the most......is they were arguing a religious point of view not a medical point view and they sucked at it! If you look hard enough you can find enough evidence to support just about anything.

They had no idea what they were talking about and i have posted 2 comments pointing out the religious crap they were arguing against with out actually using the word religion. If gonna argue against the religious side have the F'n guts to say it!!!!!

As Lou said Female Gential Mutilation is far worse issue that actually ruins lives. Americas Next Top Model had a contestant from Africa (Somali by memory) who confessed she was done.....the other contestants could believe it, as she said she can't have sex because it so painful and child birth is now out of the picture because of it too.

Don't worry Lisa........these ppl are nobodies and as someone else said they are trolls. You wrote a good article with sound medical basis. Those losers can suck sour grapes (just watch what happens to Chowder when he eats sour!!!!! It's so funny!!!!!!)

Cheers Raven

Re: Minti is so different

 I think if these people want something to get upset over they should look up Female circumcision! FGM: Female Genital Mutilation. I WOULD ADVISE NOT TO GOOGLE UNLESS YOU HAVE A STRONG STOMACH. Very disterbing practuse and im pretty sure there is no medical reason to do it!

And dont worry We all love you hehe

Re: Minti is so different

Hey Lisa - They're not really minti members just some randoms who joined from the same website. I guess they figured if all 3 of them bashed your article their opinion would be heard more but I guess that failed, didn't it? One of them has multiple accounts so is getting deleted by Izzy ;-) just a heads up there. I have redirected them to make their own article rather than doting on yours, hopefully this will get rid of them.

Love Mel
